there are many threads i want to start on here, and one of them being 'songs that sounds really similar'
Bobby Parker -- Watch Your Step
The opening riff may remind you of a Beatles song... Parker himself was interviewed about it in a great documentary called John Lennon's Jukebox
"Moby Dick" by Led Zeppelin also owes quite a bit to to "Watch Your Step", but then Zep stole so much it's hard to keep track of it all...

Obviously not the one you were looking for but this was already what I was going to post when I saw this thread.
Halestorm - I Want You (She's So Heavy)
Nice guitar and bass work on that. Especially the wah-wah on the solo. Not a fan of the vocals, however.

I'd like to hear a really good cover of Eleanor Rigby

A hard weeks night
I'm glossing a couple of friends but they did a tremendous job on these Beatle recreations. You can dl the album free on their site, or just listen to the songs on the player.
I tell them over and over they need to make it a live show and travel the circuit.

That version is actually better than The Beatles.
But I'll have to go with Tiffany's - I think we're alone now.
or this one
SRV - Taxman

Easily.

The Joe Cocker one was my favorite I was coming to post. He owns it.
Another one that I think superceded the original is Earth, Wind, & Fire's version of Got To Get You Into My Life.

Wilson Pickett -- Hey Jude Duane Allman on guitar
Easily my favorite. I always wondered how the song was received at the time of release. A black singer and a hippy covering a Beatles tune that was still topping the charts when the Beatles were at the height of their popularity...and they did it better imo.
According to Eric Clapton, that cover indirectly lead to one of my favorite albums, Derek and th Dominoes, which features the best guitar play ever recorded on any album and one of the most recognized opening riffs in music history - Layla

There are so many great covers of Beatles songs, but that is to be expected when you have such great songwriting. Every artist has their own interpretations of Beatles songs, but this is one of my favorite songs by the Beatles, and one of my favorite artists covering it. Nils Lofgren - Anytime At All

I like Ray Charles but that doesn't do it for me. I saw one of Aretha Franklin covering it that just as odd as Ray's.
